MOD_PERL Warning: With the new source, the Apache 2.2.6 does not function with mod_perl (win32). Seems the apache httpd team know that problem and will fix it in the next apache release. Note also: Mod_JK (Tomcat 6.0.13 Addon) functions without problems.

The OP said Perl and not Mod_Perl. I thought when I first read the post that s/he was talking about Mod_Perl, but then I had trouble with the perl installer (I forget the error msg, sorry, but it came up right away) and used the zip instead. Mod_Perl is not necessary for cgi perl to work.
